I have a very strange and random question. We parked in front of your beautiful shop today somewhere around 1 pm, and there is a chance we lost our kid’s favourite toy somewhere around there. If you happened to see it, could you please let me know? It’s a grey/pink giraffe (doesn’t look like a giraffe at all), and it’s well loved. I have a picture of her sister giraffe for reference. Thank you very much in any case! I will remove the comment if I don’t hear from you, so your reviews stay focused on your shop 😺
I’ll look tomorrow morning when I go back to the shop and let you know. 🤞🏻🤞🏻

This is the cutest coziest antique store I’ve ever been in— it felt like visiting someone’s eclectic home. The people working there were so nice and the prices were so reasonable, especially compared to the overpriced stuff on state street. When we checked out they let us pick from a bunch of extra baubles they had and it felt like winning a claw machine!!
Wow, thank you for your ever-so-kind comments. So glad you stopped in and found some treasures. ☺️
